Day 4. I actually used the prompt for this one. The prompt asked us to use one of @SpaceLiminalBot‘s photos. I realize that I should have gone for one more disconcerting than a winter road but I was afraid my fiction might take over and then where would we be? 😉 I haven’t used the original photo because I don’t know what the copyright is on it and didn’t want to run (or walk) afoul.
(I’m all caught up! Unbelievable!)
I remember that Christmas night drive the slick streets shiny with ice the highway with lanes of skewed cars how silent you and I were thinking only of home the warmth, the welcoming meow of Tiki-cat how grateful we’d be to park safely grab each other’s hands embrace for life, how we’d never forget (only sometimes) the joy of being alive.
Skewed cars. Love it. I had a harrowing drive like this from Vail to Denver. Glad to be alive.
Yeah. I’ve been through it twice, but we live in mixed precipitation country which is worse than solid snow. Scary times.
